Dear "Professor" Ugwumba,
Take A Look @ this;

Toppling the Bestseller in Barnes and Nobles Means something. These white Proffs have been (maybe secretly) rushing this book on GAGUT and reading it in their closets.
My Friend, Let me open your eyes of understanding. You may fail to understand that in things like this it might be a simple mathematical manipulation that will bring the work of Oyibo to universal acceptance. Boss used principles from einstein's work to come up with the Boss-Einstein condensate - a new state of matter outside the 3 popular ones. One of these white dudes (let's say Prof X) may come up with a slight modification, (something as small as the limit of a variable as it tends to zero or infinity, or a complex variable being simplified by neglecting one dimension) and the whole GAGUT becomes the BOMB. In such a case it will become X-Oyibo's GUT.
Do you know what maths means?
Do You Believe in maths?
It has been said attimes that mathematics is truth that can be proven, remember  "Truth that can be proven".
Again, it is said that before Einstein died he dropped a clue,
"The solution (to the GUT) lies in geometry".
Sir, What is Geometry? A branch of maths. Substitute in the statement and you'll have
"The solution lies in mathematics"
Cheers! God be with you and open your eyes of understanding.
GOD DOES NOT PLAY DICE WITH THE WORLD, albert einstein.

Dear Ugwumba,
I have come to notice that scientists seem to be too emotional when it appears that a fellow scientist is making a headway. I have read your posts on Emeagwali but i must tell you that I may be justified if I conclude that your attack is driven by jealousy rather than reason. Why? I have observed that your attack has crossed the boundary of Emeagwali and drifted to Oyibo. I must tell you that you may have some grudge against Emeagwali but PLEASE I beg you, don't even try to tongue-lash a two time Nobel-Nominee named Professor G.A. Oyibo. You are a Physicist and you know what it is to develop such a formula (GAGUT).
What you are doing is exactly what one Professor Ama Nduka in my University (FUTO) did when Oyibo visited our school. Nduka has this habit of getting aggressive whenever any other physicist appears to outshine him. When The Profs. who felt they could lash Oyibo started displaying heights of childishness like you are doing, Oyibo said something, "Don't attack me, Attack my formula" They could not. Look, Oyibo is not your mate. I don't think you know what it is to be nominated for a Nobel Prize.
In the academia, the number of references you have i.e the number of authors that refer to your work or book, affects your prestige. Chike Obi as I heard, has about 20 international references. I don't relly know how true that is, but thats enormous if you know what an "International Reference" is. A Russian mathematician, Professor Sagas (or something of that sort - not sure of the spelling) read Oyibo's Gagut and found nothing mathematically wrong with it. Sagas has 201 references! How many do you have?
You should know that Oyibo's work is on Mathematical Physics. Einstein was a mathematical physicist. In mathematical physics you move from equations to reality. i.e You develop equations and give experimental physicists to try out and it works. Einstein's work was developed with equations - scratches of a pen on paper and when US tried it, it destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Remember that Einstein's equation was also looking physically unreal but because it was mathematically faultless, it worked. That's what theoretical Physics is all about. If the conditions are satisfied, the physical must obey. Remember, those equations were founded on time-tested laws of physics. Oyibo is very intelligent and you may not reason like him. If there is a fault in GAGUT then there is a fault with one of the underlying principles that were applied while deriving the equation (Gij,j = 0). Maybe calculus, relativity, Gauss, poisson's, laplace's or  lagrange's theorems could be faulty.  Attack those people who founded those theorems i.e Newton, Einstein, Laplace, etc. Read his childhood story and see how he discovered Gauss's equation without having prior knowledge of such a theorem - in primary school! The discovery thing is in Him. Behave Yourself! The most likely thing that is pushing you against Oyibo is Jealousy.
Behave Yourself!
